Tell your kids:
1. Never share names, schools, ages phone numbers, or addresses
2. Never send pictures to strangers
3. Keep passwords private (except to parents)
4. Don't open any mail from strangers
5. If something mean or creepy happens, immediately get a grown up

Welcome
MSAD #15 offers 1:1 computing for all students in grades 5-12 and has multiple classroom computing resources in our K-4 buildings. Formal technology instruction begins for students in grade 3 and continues through grade 8 as part of the Unified Arts offerings. Grade curricula are posted here. (right hand column)
While using technology can be fun and offer students the opportunity to explore a variety of topics we are also aware of the potential dangers of unsupervised computing. Our schools are protected with a filter that meets the Children Internet Safety Protection Act (CIPA). However, we must remain diligent in monitoring student use of technology to avoid any breaches in security.
We encourage parents to visit some of the websites that we find helpful for internet safety. These websites will offer parents excellent tips in keeping their children safe while online at home.
